Bringing you the best of the apocalypse

Z.A.P.A.T.A.

A recent Adelphi University Center for Health Innovation poll found that 53 percent of Americans do not have the supplies on hand to last the first three days of a disaster and 48 percent don’t even have a properly stocked first aid kit.

That’s where the Zombie Apocalypse Preparedness And Training Academy comes into play. ZAPATA is designed to give you a basic working knowledge of the science behind a zombie apocalypse as well an introduction to the skills you will need to get through the first 72 hours of the end of times.

Not concerned about a zombie apocalypse? That’s okay because this course can still help you. You see, once you’re ready to survive in a zombie apocalypse, you can rest assured that you won’t be caught off guard, no matter what disaster Mother Nature might throw at you.

The 2012 Atlantic hurricane season was extremely active and destructive, tying as the third most active year in recorded history and producing 19 tropical cyclones and named storms, 10 hurricanes, and one major hurricane. Hurricane Sandy is blamed for 263 deaths and more than $65 billion in damages. Residents in the storms path of destruction went days without electricity or water.

2012 also saw a total of 919 confirmed tornadoes in the United States. Of those four were EF4 level. The storms caused nearly $5 billion in damages and claimed 68 lives. The 2011 tornado in Joplin, an EF5 storm, resulted in at least 161 deaths and more than 900 injuries.

If you are one of the millions of Americans who do not have adequate supplies, or you’ve started prepping but aren’t sure what to do or where to go, ZAPATA is for you.

Making use of a simple to follow digital format, lessons are presented in small portions. You move through the various modules at your own pace, learning as quickly as you like while having the option to take your time if you prefer.

Although it does not cover long-term survival strategies, the ZAPATA course is comprehensive, covering preparation essentials such as water, food and equipment. We’re confident that when you complete the course you will have the knowledge needed to survive a crisis.

This in-depth presentation is what helps set ZAPATA apart from other courses you might have seen before. While a number of “zombie survival” courses exist, many of them are actually day or weekend long weapons proficiency courses offered at local gun ranges.

There’s nothing wrong with these classes and skill with a weapon will certainly come in handy. But the simple truth is that there is much more to survival than being able to shoot.
